I had this problem and all I did was put some sewing machine oil in behind the bobbin and it loosened up and ran like a charm.

Check the local sewing repair shop to see if they can order it for you. You can also search the internet for the manufacturer, model and the word "parts" to see if there are any online suppliers for your machine. If you are creative, you may be able to jerryrig something using a plastic drinking straw, chopstick, or a wooden dowel. ...

You are putting the bobbin wrong......see the manual and make sure the bobbin is facing the correct direction.....:)

I don't know your model but most machines have 2 common setting devices, namely a stitch width dial (how wide the needle swings) and a stitch length dial, how far apart the stitches are. So a normal straight stitch is "width" set to zero and "length" set to 2.5. If the machine has several different stitches then there may be a "stitch selector" too where you can choose the stitch style, ie zig-zag, 3 step zigzag, blind hem stitch etc.

You could try to locate a manual or threading diagram at various websites or visit sewing.about.com which gives good general information on threading and use.

change the needle
clean under the needle plate where the feed dogs are for lint
clean the bobbin are for lint or loose threads
check the thread tension-usually 3 or 4 is good
rethread the machine top thread & bobbin
some machines jam when the thread come off the thread take up lever--I have to watch my mechanical sewing machine for that problem

Try the old hair dryer trick, take off the cover, pay attention where the screws go, put some gloves on, then work the reverse lever, button or whatever you have on your machine and your stitch length dial. It may have old grease or oil that needs to soften. Now put your machine back together. Clean and Oil your machine as per your manual. Try rethreading and a new needle before you sew.
